REST Connector - Connect to RESTful APIs using an OpenAPI Specification
Scribe's REST connector lets you integrate an app's REST API with business applications like CRM, ERP, marketing automation and databases. This video shows you how to install the REST connector in the Scribe iPaaS, Scribe Online. Then it demonstrates how to create a REST connection using the Open Movie Database as an example.
Until recently there was no standard way to describe a RESTful API and therefore no standard way to connect to one, but that has changed. The OpenAPI Specification provides a uniform description of RESTful APIs. Scribe’s REST Connector reads an API definition in an OpenAPI Specification document to understand how to interact with a RESTful API, including authentication and discovery of metadata and operations.
If you use a cloud application that offers an OpenAPI Specification for its API, the REST Connector can connect directly to it without coding a custom connector. Simply import the OpenAPI Specification into the connection definition, and Scribe does the rest.
If the application you want to connect has no OpenAPI Specification, you can write your own for use with the REST Connector.
